That cavi was a bad example of poke on a Fit.

Update:

I picked them up in Kelowna, British Columbia and had a mini vacation while we were up there. I loved the drive there.

Anyways, they're still mint and recently refinished. Tried to get them on, but the studs aren't long enough on the Fit. The picture is super off on what it'd look like on the car. The don't even poke out as far as I thought it'd be. I'll have to get extended studs to fit them on, plus I'm waiting for coilovers still. I just canceled my Bilstein coilover order and am set on getting AMR Engineering coilovers. They're built assembled blocks away from my girl's place here in Seattle.

Even if I choose not to put them on, I'll be able to sell them pretty fast here. It's BMW central here in Seattle. Vancouver BC or Portland can be potential markets as well. So no problem with getting the money back and some.

Glad to hear!

I also have a set of old school 14's I wanna run but need longer studs too. Im pretty sure they're at 14x7 0 and Im confident I can run them without rolling fenders if I choose tires wisely.

Post pics of the rims!

0 offset needs over a inch pull..... any -offset would be stupid and probably wont clean unless you have a fender flair to add on.

Well Evening to this post! i'm new to the forums and just picked me up a 2012FitSport and i'm in love with it.. i see so many good looking drops and wheels.. it's hard to decide... So what is a good size for a wheel that would sit flush without rubbing or fender rolling/cambering? Cause we all know the stock is MEH... i'm undecided... I even need recommendations for Coilovers =D

DO RESEARCH. IT IS NOT DIFFICULT.

Kids are so lazy these days.

So am I asking for way too much? I mean this is a damn aggressive fitment. BUT THE PRICE IS A STEAL!

So YAY OR NAY?
Nay.
A steal isn't when you can't use it. Stock offset is 52 or 53 mm and you want to use 13 mm!. Your wheels will move outward by 40 mm or so, about 1.65". Try measuring that from your tire tread edge and see where it will be compared to the fender lip..
